  • Semi-continuous casting is a process, conventionally used in industry, for manufacturing large-size aluminum alloy ingots, mainly comprising two methods: one being hot top casting, and the other being direct chill casting.
  • hot top casting is that the liquid level is stable during the casting process, but a relatively-deep liquid cavity is generated in the center of the ingot, and the solidified structure contains a large area of columnar crystal zone. Macroscopic segregation is severe from the center to the edge of the ingot, and relatively-high internal stress remains, so that the ingot is easy to crack with low yield, which is not suitable for the production of aluminum alloy ingot with high alloy content.
  • the additive manufacturing has changed the casting mode of large-volume solidification of liquid aluminum.
